Complete look at Chiefs player ratings in 'Madden NFL 20'

The folks at Electronic Arts have released the complete launch ratings for every player in “Madden NFL 20.”

Below you’ll find a look at the top ratings for Chiefs players in this years in this seasons installment of the game. Keep in mind these ratings will be adjusted throughout the year as players and the season progresses.

The Chiefs have three players who are the highest-rated at their respective positions. They also have another player who has the fastest player in the game. Can you take a guess about who that might be? Lets take a look:

Instead his overall rating is a 97, which is still good for the best rating of any quarterback in the game, including Tom Brady. It’s okay to put the pitchforks down on that front folks.

Mahomes’ two highest individual ratings are for “Throw on the run” and “Throw under pressure.” It makes sense, given some of his moments from the 2018 season came when he was forced out of the pocket. These two stats should be the ones that influence his rating in a positive light.

Travis Kelce

The top-rated tight end in the game is none other than Kelce, coming in at 96 overall. No other tight ends come within three points of Kelce, which is surprising given that 49ers TE George Kittle gave Kelce a run for his money last season with subpar QB play.

Kelce’s highest individual rating is his “Awareness,” which is a 99 rating. In the past this rating has had to do with what happens when they’re controlled by the CPU and not the player. With 11 players on the field you can only control one at a time.

Tyreek Hill

Hill’s launch rating has him as the No. 6 ranked WR in the game, with a 94 overall rating. A year ago he was one of the most dominant players in the Madden because of his speed and that won’t change this season.

Hill is the only player in the game with 99 “Speed” rating. Hill is also the only player in the game with a 99 “Acceleration” rating. The closest defender in terms of speed is Cowboys CB Anthony Brown, who is only a 79 overall player and has a 95 speed rating.

Covering Tyreek Hill is still going to be one of the most difficult things to do in this game. This is going to lead to a lot of professional players choosing the Chiefs as their team for tournament play this year.

Mitchell Schwartz

It’s great to see Schwartz recognized as the top right tackle in the game. At 93 overall, no other right tackle has a higher overall rating than Schwartz. In fact, of both left and right tackles, only Tyron Smith, Andrew Whitworth, Trent Williams and David Bahktiari have higher launch ratings than Schwartz.

As for his top individual rating, Schwartz has 96 in “Pass block power.” It makes sense as he’s been exceptional as a pass protector during his time with the Chiefs.

Chris Jones

Jones is the highest-rated Chiefs defender coming in at 89 overall. After leading the Chiefs in sacks just a season ago, I think Jones is well-deserving of the top rating.

What is interesting to me is that Jones’ top individual rating is “Awareness,” which comes in at 95. This should make it easier, when you’re playing defense, to use one of the edge rushers or the other defensive tackle.
